The siege of Thanjavur was a conflict between the Madurai army led by Venkata Krishna Nayak, and the Thanjavur army under King Vijaya Raghava Nayak. After a canon bombardment and relentless assault on the Tanjore fort, the Madurai forces broke through the defenses. Vijaya Raghava Nayak died fighting valiantly on the battlefield. The capture of Thanjavur marked the end of the Thanjavur Nayak kingdom, with Madurai emerging victorious and the kingdom falling under the control of Chokkanatha Nayak.
